I pick it up drove it 2 miles home, and, I could not beleive it, there was coolant pouring out from the same spot all over my parking space.

Am I getting screwed around here by these differant repair shops? No one can locate this leak.

Thanks....
I doubt you're getting screwed. They just did not see the problem when they had the car. If you can see coolant coming out, your problem is much easier to solve. All you need to do now is pop open the hood and get under it and see where it's coming from. You can at least determine which side, or what section of the engine compartment it is dripping from.
